It has been a nice, calm morning. Mom asked me to take her shopping at Dollar Eagle and The Dollar General Store, so she bought my breakfast at McDonald's. We just sat there and talked over coffee( my mom can't live without it) and hot cocoa( my fav. hot drink.) She bought me some things at Dollar Eagle. They had dish soap for the dishwasher for only $1.00 and it said, "Spot Free", so lets hope it is spot free. I'm off today- the stores are a mad house, so I'm not working until Sunday. I guess I could be writing. I'm going to fill out some applications online for my research on low-paying jobs. I was figuring it up last night and it looks like I may have to work 1 full-time job and at least one job at 25 hours a week to make my "new", rent in Lexington. I am doing this for 6 months.
